XO Airways?

Does anyone know anything about the rumoured planned start up of this French operator based at Angouleme? I believe they are a 'paper airline' planning to charter in capacity to serve ANG-LGW route from this summer, to replace the Ryanair ANG-STN route, and I am given to understand they may already have some arrangements in place (slots etc) at LGW to cover this?

That said, the Angouleme/Cognac Airport authority seem to have a problem with the plan as, from their website homepage [http://www.aeroport-angouleme-cognac.com/index.html], they appear to be doing their very best to distance themselves from the plan. Very bizarre?!
